After 2.2 mm drill, a 2.5 mm mini implant is placed at #24 <10 Ncm (Fig.2,3). Since the ridge at #26 is apparently wider than that of #24 (Fig.1), a 3x11.5 mm implant is placed after the same drill (2.2 mm); insertion torque is ~ 35 Ncm. Bone graft is placed around the implants (Fig.2,3 *) before placement of PRF membrane. There is apparently no bone loss 4 months postop with ~ 3 month provisional (Fig.5). The gingiva is healthy in spite of poor oral hygiene.
